Real Life Seen
In Farce Comedy
Plays that possess the rare quality
of human interest and which as
Shakespeare said, "hold the mirror
up to nature," are ones which enjoy
the greatest popularity and success.
In O. M. Anderson's production of
his latest New York comedy hit.
'Just Around the Corner," which is
due at the Antlers theater tonight,
the human equation plus an Inimit
able fund of genuine comedy makes
It one of the most enjoyable stage
offerings In recent years.
Just Around the Corner" Is a
eomedy gem written by George V.
Hobart in colloboration with Herbert
Hall Wlnslow. It deals with the
humorous adventures of a sprightly
New York widow known as Phoebe
who, when she loses her wealth, goes
to a small village to take over a gen
eral merchandise store left to her by
her late husband. The efforts of the
town "Boss," her business rival, to
cheat her of the store and Phoebe's
battle for supremacy constitute an
action of gripping, If at times, hilar
ious nropensitfes.
Edna Wallace Hopper, an actress
of great charm and of International
reputation will head the cast of
"Just Around the Corner," and will
bo supported by such sterling play
ers as Oral Humphrey, Frank Darlen.
Miss Leona Anderson, Frank Wallace
and others.

PEARS PROVE TO BE
Big Sums Realized by Grow,
ers From Sale of Fruit
Through Association.
BARTLETTS PRE FIRST
Sale Will Ilun Clone to Half Million
Dollars AccortlUig to Matement
Issued From Growers Associa.
tion Headquarters Itocontl)'.
With sales of pears that will run
close to half a million dollars thia
fall, the Oregon Growers Co-operative
association. In a recent state
ment shows that the growing of
pears is becoming one of the great
money producing enterprises in the
Willamette, Umpqua and Rogue
River valleys.
Already the association has sold
pears thin season to the amount of
SJH3.U6.39. with fully 200 cars yet
to be heard from. In fact, returns
from but few of the fall pears had
been received up to October 7. When
the returns are all In It Is estimated
that the OreRon Growers will receive
more than half a million dollars for
the pear crop alone.
The Bartlett pear is easily the
leader of all other varities. Although
there are about 200 cars to be mar
keted, up to the time of October 7,
the report says that the Bartlett
sales alone amounted to $250,678.
68. Second In the amount received
for pears grown In the Willamette,
Umpqua and Rogue River valleys,
Is the lieurre Hose pear, with returns
amounting to October 7 of 119,619
10, while the Howell pear ranks
third In the state with sales totaling
$15,734.20.
The D'Anjo pear ranks fourth
this season with returns amonting
to $4,191.60. So far, the Flemish
Beauty cuts little figure in west
ern Oregon, as the sales up to Oct
ober 7 were only $3.64.
"Pear growers this season have
received the highest prices for their
product ever known west of the
cascades," says C. I. Ijewis of the
Oregon Growers Association. "This
figure was maintained by tne Oregon
Growers largely through its efforts
in keeping the market nicely bal
anced.
"That la where auction sales were
bringing high prices, the association
shipped pears. Where the f. o. b.
market was strong, the association
sold, keeping the market balanced.
In the meantime the canneries were
well supplied with their needs. It
was In selling at all times on the
highest market that the Oregon
Growers worked for Its members.
' By distributing where the market
demand was 'the strongest, the Ore
gon growers sold in the highest of
'.he markets, while In the meantime
it prevented lizy Judicious distribu
tion, any break in the market."
Various road matters were handl
ed by the state highway commission
at the meeting held Saturday. A
Portland paper referring to the meet
ing said: Replying to the demand
of citliens of Reedsport for a road

DR. LOVEJOY OPPOSES
Dr. Esther Pohl Lovejojr of Portland
Strongly Against Nauiltariuiu
Project State Officials
Are Here Today.
For the purpose of making a com
plete investigation of the proposed
erection of a sanitarium at Winches
ter by the Winchester Sanitarium
company, for the care of tuberculosis
patients, Dr. Esther Pohl Lovejoy, a
prominent Portland physician; Mrs.
Sadie Orr Dunbar, of the Portland
Anti-Tuberculosis society, and A. K
Mclnturll. attorney for the statu
board of health, arrived in Rpseburg
last evening.
They spent this afternoon at Win
chester looking over the site for the
sanitarium and investigating the
water supply and drainage. Dr.
Lovejoy will appear before the coun
cil tonight and will at that time give
the results of their Investigation and
her opinion of the project.
When Interviewed this morning
concerning the erection of the sani
tarium, Dr. Lovejoy gave her own
attitude as being strongly against
any such project. "Since arriving In
this city," said Dr. Lovejoy. "I have
found there seems to be a misunder
standing on the part of some con
cerning my connection with the Win
chester Sanitarium company. I wish
this point 'to be made clear, above
everything else, that I never did
favor the erection of the sanitarium,
and that I expect to fight II to the
best of my ability. I do not wish to
be connected with such an organiza
tion In any way, and It is impossible
in my mind that anyone could think
that a doctor or any standing at all
could be in favor of such a thing as
that. You can certainly make It as
strong as you like'lhar 1 am against
It, but I will explnin my altitude
clearly at the meeting of your coun
cil tonight."
Just how and why Dr. Lovejoy's
name has been used In connection
with the Winchester Sanitarium
company has not yet been fully ex
plained but, according to Dr. love
joy, this matter will tie i'ully settled
while she is In this city.
Mrs. Fannie Henderson left this
morning for her home In Drain after
visiting In this city a short time.

RED CROSS ROLL
CALL TOMORROW
Committees Will be Put Out
On Armistice Day to Se
sure New Members.
GREAT WORK DONE
AcconiplishiiMMiU for Past Year Are
Sunrllng When Small Amount
of Money liaised is Taken
Into Consideration.
The fourth annual Red Cross roll
call will start on Thursday, with 11.
W. Strong as chairman. Committees
will be on the street Armistice Day
and an effort will be made to secure
a large membership. Great Interest
la being shown In the roll call this
year and there will doubtless be a
liberal response to the plea made.
The work of the Red Cross locally
has been of great benefit. During
the early part of the year a great
deal of attention was given to re
turning soldiers. Many men without
funds were helped on their way and
employment secured for those who
desired. The secretary helped hund
reds of these ex-service men, the
funds being obtained from the
amount raised by the third roll call.
Another very important work was
the employment of a public health
Instructor. Miss Smith, the nurse
employed, has instructed two large
classes lr. Roseburg. These classes
were taught in home hygiene, sanita
tion, care of the sick and other
branches of home nursing. Over
thirty local women were Instructed
and are now in a position to assist In
the ease of an epidemic or in sickness
in their own homes. Other such
classes were Instructed at Sutherlln
and Oakland, and now Miss Smith is
completing the same line of work at
Reedsport, Gardiner and Scoltsburg.
Later she will go to Glendale and
points In thnt part of the county.
This work alone Is worth the support
of every cltlten of the county and a
hearty response should be given the
fourth roll call to carry on this im
portrtnt labor.
The local Red Cross chapter has
also been aiding injured or disabled
soldiers In taking up vocational
training. It has also assisted men In
getting In touch with the govern
ment In various ways where they had
certain claims to adjust. During the
flu epidemic last year several emer
gency nurses were employed nnd sup
plies were bought and distributed to
needy families. Several hundred
dollars were spent In taking care of
those who were afflicted with Influ
enza and a great work was accom
plished. The money was well spent. There
was no waste and no disorder. The
Red Cross did Its work efficiently
and without self advertising or self
praise. Great good was accomplished
without bolng announced broadcast.
There is still much to be done and
money is needed. A dollar spent
with the Red Cross Is a dollar well
spent and will accomplish a great
deal for humanity. Half of the dol
lar will be kept at home for work in
this Immedlato vicinity and will be
spent under the direction of the local
committee. This money for home
sesrvlce will be directed into chan
nels affecting only people In Rose-
burg and Douglaa county. The other
half dollar will go to the state and
national headquarters to be used for
relief in all parts of the world. The
money is spout only for relief of the
sick, wounded or homeless, or for aid
In health welfare work.
Several committees have been ap
pointed by Mr. Strong to aid in this
work and Roseburg residents will be
solicited to Jolu this great humani
tarian organization. None should
refuses for the work Is a great one
and should not be slighted.

E
Yamhill County Grower Gives
His Views on Method of
Handling Crop.
ASK FOR FAIR PLAY
Believes That Association Has Not
Handled the Crop la tho Ooriect
Way Buyers Are Said to
lie Very Conservative.
PORTLAND. Nov. 10. There Is
no Improvement in the prune mar
ket and, as in the case with ot'ier
dried fruits, and In fact the entlro
grocery list, the buying is generally
of a hand-to-mouth character. It Is
to be hoped a way will yet be fornd
to move the Oregon prune crop for
tbe benefit of the industry here, but
at the present time there is no Indi
cation as to how this will be done.
Prune buyers are very conservative
about new crop goods. In any other
seuBon the harvest conditions that
prevailed In this state and the short
age of 3O-40s would have caused a
boom on this site of fruit. Now, how
ever, the average factor, even con
sidering the reducd tonnage both
here and in Callfor la, is still In
doubt as to wheth .r the croi will
move at current price levels.
Much has been said as to the
method of handling the Oregon crop
this year. O. W. llaynes. a Yamhill,
county grower. In a letter to the
Yamhill Record gives his views as
follows:
"I have noticed the wide publicity
given the Oregon Growers' Co-operative
association by the press of the
state and nation and I fear that they
have been given such a free band
that they are becoming a little care
less In statements made In some of
their articles. As a prune grower I
am more Interested perhaps In the
success ot the prune Industry in the
northwest than some of those on the
paid staff of the association.
"If tho association Is the right
thing I am for It, but let truth and
fair play prevail, no matter what we
do. The writer has no Interest with
any packer, nor has ho been asked to
fight their battles in any way. Yet
I feel that one ot tbe reasons for the
deplorable condition of the prune
market today Is mismanagement on
the part of the sales department of
the association. Overxcalouaness in
their endeavors to force the Indepen
dent packer out ot business has been
a contributing causo for tho condi
tion which now exists. In a rocont
article they admit the situation, but
stale that It is due to the financial
condition and unfair competition on
the part of the packer."
After commenting on tho associa
tion's Instructions to the eastern rep
resentative to "advise your trado that
It will bo to their advantnge to delay
buying Oregon prunes until we nnmu
nur prices," Mr. llaynes concludes:
"We believe that the bulk of the
prune crop could have been sold be
fore the financial condition had
reached a stage whereby It affected
the market of the country, at a fig-
e that would hare given tbe grow
er 1 fi or 16 cents.
"We believe had the association
contliH'l Its activities to finding a
market early In the season Instead of
undermining the market the packet
was endeavoring to make, the bulk
of the crop would have been sold at
that price. We believe the associa
tion made a mistake in advocating a
lower price for prunes, for when the
decline In the price of an agricultur
al product once Is started it will go
plenty fast without the extra kick
from the producer himself."
